Shark and Fox

Propelled by accordion pumping through the subs, twanging gourd banjo licks on a fretless children’s Stratocaster, vintage synths controlled by a violin, and an Argentinian bombo fashioned into a drum kit, “Shark & Fox” hide their toughest questions inside a pile of murder ballads, moving sideways through the traditional building blocks of music, in search of the shortcut to your heart.

Described as “the illegitimate love child between The Dirty Projectors and Ivo Papazov’s Bulgarian wedding band” Shark & Fox formed in early 2024 for their first Australian tour, bringing a new collection of songs to the stage, and discovering their own sound alongside the audience at shows across the country. With 3 seasoned artists from disparate musical and geographical backgrounds, the band’s unifying mission is to stay curious, and to let the song be the guide.

Shark & Fox consists of Canada’s Jaron Freeman-Fox on violin, 12-string viola d’amor and fretless guitar, Australia's Emily-Rose Sharkova on accordion and keyboards, and Rose Callaghan on the drums, with all three members lending their voices in a collective roar, or intricate harmony.

Opening the evening is Catie Alison. Blending her poetry with ethereal melodies, Catie Alison's creativity shines through her songwriting and arrangements. Her celtic roots and love of all things whimsical channels a sound that will transport you to a magical yet bittersweet dreamland of cello, voice and guitar. Catie will be joined by Lionel Baker on keys and voice.

Jessie Monk

Under a Waning Gibbous Moon, step out of the neon-monotony of high st and into the mythic grounds of Mis. Avant-folk artist Jessie Monk, joined in a spirallic quartet with Aidan Ryan (NoLess), Arlon Faria, Patrick Pheasant and other fae-guests - continues the voyage through the mountains of Mis' tale - this time in celebration of her momentary Naarm departure (Jessie will be based in Sydney from Jan - April 2025 to perform in Anais Mitchell's - HadesTown). The concert will venture through the ancient celtic myth of Mis - in Jessie's original compositions - this time weaving in some traditional songs with some exciting special guests. Those who attended Gold Flowers, the first chapter of Mis' birth will be delighted by the many new brooks and estuaries of this expanding trio - those who have yet to meet Mis' world - it is a world of experimental folk/jazz fusion with arrangements that contemplate a timeless feminine, underworldly journey through grief, song, love and magic.  For fans of Sam Amidon, Lankum, Joni Mitchell, Wilco or Anna Mieke, it promises an enchanting, mythical evening of avant-folk music.

Jessie Monk: Compositions, Guitar, Violin, Vocals

Jessie Monk is an avant-folk musician out of GunaiKurnai land, Australia, now based between Berlin and Naarm. She weaves new stories with old threads, inspired by the Celtic and Appalachian folk traditions and more experimental mediums such as new-music and Butoh. Often accompanied by a renegade ensemble in Fabiana Striffler, Max Andrzejewski, Paul Santner and Conor Cunningham,  Jessie Monk and Band create an atmosphere of tangible and, at the same time, experimental folklore and thoughtfulness, enchanting audiences with their mythical and eruptive playing style. Her sound is reminiscent of Joni Mitchell, Sam Amidon or Anna Mieke while her lyrics are inspired by the likes of Rilke and Ovid. Also an actress and a dancer, Jessie has played in major musicals including the Australian Premier of David Bowie’s, Lazarus. In 2023, she released her debut, ‘Boundless Folk LP’ - Rolling Stone Magazine, Continually Becoming, and has just begun releasing her sophomore album - Mis O’ The Mountains - a concept album based on the myth of the ancient celtic goddess named Mis and will be performing in Opera Australia's production of Anais Mitchell's HadesTown in 2025.

Cosmic Country Christmas Spectacular

Hovering like mist over a glassy moonlit lake, Ben Mastwyk & The Energy rise from dusty streets of Melbourne’s inner north with their unique brand of cosmic-cult-country. Sydney power-priestess Katie Brianna and rising starlet Katie May join forces with Collingwood’s cosmic cowboy Ben Mastwyk to deliver their harmony-laden hillbilly sermons. 
 
Over a chilly weekend huddled in a Ballarat hideaway dubbed The Miner’s Loft, the trio assembled a makeshift studio by the open fire and proceeded to explore the alchemy of their guitars, analog synthesisers and mesmerising three-part harmonies. They emerged with a triptych of haunting songs, imbued with their collective DNA and delicately tainted with the moody atmosphere of old cabin. 
 
Join them as they celebrate the release of The Minor’s Loft Sessions in the suitable warm surrounds of the Wesley Anne band room on Sat Dec 14 with fellow country troubadours The Distant South. 

The Distant South offer a new take on the alt-country genre, weaving confessional tales into melody and harmony-soaked tunes, brought to life with a menagerie of stringed instruments…and drums! The Distant South throw the sounds of Country, Folk, Blues and Soul into the fiery pit of angst and heartache to deliver captivating performances of songs from their book of life.

A musician and actor, Keegan is recognised for his award-winning television performances in Please Like Me and Rake. With a small band, this intimate show will feature his latest songs as well as some from his debut album "Snow on Higher Ground".

This one-night only performance will give you a moment to reflect on the year that's passed and put to bed the things that haunt us, hopefully for good.

"A demure and angelic voice", Keegan weaves a story of doubt, love/hate, and self-fulfillment in an attempt to understand why sleep evades him, and if there's anyone else to blame for everything that's wrong. A performance that attempts to capture the spirit of a problem shared is a problem halved, and what better way than through music.
